I wasn’t going to give up
I stood up
probably looking like a fool
two steps back
and then a great leap
alighting on the nearest
caprice
that would fling me forward
in speeds unknown to men
far beyond the perimeter
of predictability
in amazement I was already
roaming the streets
the night crackling like firewood
in the midst of an entire
careless crowd
blind with mad desire
running through
the streets
and the smells
the drool
the sweat
I could taste everything
nothing could stop me
like a superhero of despair
that would not
give up
relentlessly swerving
through the eternal succession
of labyrinthine alleyways
I ran
ran
and ran
laughing
like a fool
because I would never
give up.

“the night crackiling like firewood” fantastic line
I’m indebted to you for every single comment. Thanks.
Pablo… I felt these words the whole way through, then read them again! This is a beautiful and tragic image… I felt captured by it.
I can see myself in between lines . I ate and digested every single lines. I love it. A kiss for you.
